Watan-On the day of the Palestinian nurse Mohammed Al-Kahlout, who works at the Indonesian hospital, broke down in tears as he spoke about the tragic hours the hospital experienced due to Israeli airstrikes before the humanitarian ceasefire took effect in the Gaza Strip.
Al-Kahlout recounted the details of these difficult moments, describing how Israeli snipers were deployed everywhere, accompanied by dogs that were part of the occupying forces.
“He added that those present in the hospital, including medical staff, patients, and displaced individuals, lined up, with women and children at the back. The occupying forces then instructed them to advance one by one.
Mohammed Al-Kahlout pointed out that the Israeli forces began calling out to a person, arrested him, and then started examining everyone in the hospital.
When it was his turn, the nurse explained that the occupying forces asked for his name, took a facial imprint, inquired about his job, and then subjected him to severe physical assault, focusing particularly on his face with heavy equipment.
Unable to contain himself, the nurse broke down in tears, revealing that the Israeli forces interrogated him for ten minutes and then left him.
Mohammed Al-Kahlout mentioned that he heard the sounds of his colleagues being beaten while he was undergoing the assault. He, visibly distressed, disclosed that the occupying forces unleashed dogs on his colleagues who were being detained.
